Document type:

G - Presentations (eg Graphics)

Abstract:

This will be a short presentation about GW150914 given to an audience at the Arecibo Observatory (AO) in Puerto Rico.

I primarily use slides from G1600258 (Landry et al.), but I also used G1600354, (Dooley, Cavaglia).

New slides are primarily ones which include photos I wanted to include in the talk.
